Europid types descended from the robust, dolichocephalic and broad-faced population exemplified by Crô-Magnon, continuing the classic type of the hunter-gatherers of the temperate-cold/cold regions. Cro-Magnids proper (as exemplified by Dalo-Falids and "Brünns") are unreduced, somewhat gracilized and have narrower faces than their Upper Paleolithic ancestors. Other populations have experienced deviant evolutionary processes, leading to specializations like reduction and brachycephalization (Borreby, Alpinid and Baltid). Sporadic survivals of an eastern "pre-balticized" Cro-Magnid, similar to the western forms, may be found throughout predominantly Baltid populations.

AURIGNACID

General term, referring to Aurignacian contemporaries of Crô-Magnon characterized by e.g. narrower faces and more ellipsoidal skulls than the type(s) exemplified by the latter (Cro-Magnoid). Combe-Capelle is the primary example, and Capellid is sometimes used synonymously with Aurignacid.
